At raid6, rebuilds are 4.2 roentgens, not great but they’re not horrible. Keep old backups.but the data isn’t irreplaceable.

Raid5 is suicide if you care about your data.

This is exactly what it was like, except you didn’t need it as much.

Storage used to cover how much a person needed and maybe 2-8x more, then datasets shot upwards with audio/mp3, then video, then again with Ai.

Modeline ftw.

Love ventoy. That one usb becomes a Swiss army chainsaw.

But as said elsewhere it hides proprietary blobs among other things.

They know customers will pay, but mostly they can lock in long term contracts on favorable terms.

Hock is scarily good at his job, depending on how you define his job.

They have deals on fire extinguishers too.

The drivers are infinitely better, and the stutter when creating a ton of windows (ie notification spam from kconnect) is basically gone.

Yeah I was thinking DNS over https was sneaking in, it’s a tricky little bastard and you have to kill Firefox to change that properly.

Check again, it is sneaky AF.

And I’m one of them, on principle.

But I care about my own country 5 million times more than I care about a few poor people suffering in a different country, especially when they aren’t the only one’s suffering.

Please, run a poll on how the majority of US citizens feel about stomping kittens next, I’m really curious how the numbers come out.

You live in a fantasy world, real people have shit to worry about.

Live in the bay area, we care the most in the country by far, only a minority here give a shit. Those assholes who blocked the bridge just pissed everyone off.

You live in a filter bubble, and have fun with that, the reason bibi can do whatever he wants is because very few people care, and most that do are so young that they’re unlikely to vote anyway.

It’s not just secularism, it’s also that Palestinians look a lot like the guys who flew planes into the towers, and that we fought for decades and were taught were inhuman enemies that just enjoyed brutalizing women and innocents. Texas just wants the middle east to give up their oil, otherwise nobody else would care about them either.

The only thing I find funny about the whole thing is Israelis turning around so quickly to commit their own genocide, but again, it’s just an ironic but of humor.

Personally the middle east is a shit hole, we should stay as far away from it as possible.

We have serious humanitarian issues in our own hemisphere, especially in south America, which should be our responsibility if we didn’t actually start them ourselves, we should fix them, while cutting off all aid to Israel, but the last thing I want to do is get more involved in the middle east.

You’re joking, but that’s how they used to win elections.

Then the dixiecrat filth switched parties and they started losing all the elections.

It’s not Gaza, most people don’t give a shit about Palestinians, I’d guess 60-odd percent of Americans wouldn’t give a shit it Israel went through and committed a formal genocide so long as they didn’t have to see it on TV. Evangelicals would buy t-shirts, just one step closer to the rapture.

To most Americans it’s just more dead Muslims, which means Christianity is winning, which is depressing, but sadly American.

Good news! Elon says you can make the check out to: “X, not Twitter and not a complete business fucktastrophe”.

I think this is a reasonable assumption, but my experience suggests it will absolutely not be true for a lot of proprietary software.

That being said, that stuff will only be supported on rhel which will bend over backwards to keep it sort of working somehow.

Brother is amazing, only printer I’ve ever used that was automatically detected by every device including freebsd.

Linux is much better on hdd, windows upgrading to ssd was absolutely seismic, especially for games.

Linux you notice, but once the applications are running you don’t notice it too much till you REALLY run low on memory, or keep opening new docs or something.

Great, then we just leave everything alone and say 32-bit user land is broken past 2038, doubt too many people are dying to run 32-bit userland after that, but if they are I can guarantee they’ll be running old binaries probably without source.
